"Can’t the USA declare a diplomat unacceptable (persona non grata) and require him to leave?" YES

"Why hasn’t this happened?" The UK is a close ally. PNG status is not needed. Freeze him out and his government will recall him in good time.

The UK is a close ally.

Our close ally has crawled in bed with the mullahs. Conspired with with US citizens committing sedition.

With allies like the UK, who needs enemies.

Well, perhaps, but they are still a reliable ally on several levels. Common language, culture, political and legal systems, same side on several 20th century wars means a lot.

This point is moot now, as the ambassador seems to have resigned ...
